COPYING  RESTRICTIONS 


Reel  duplication  of  the  whole  or  of 
any  part  of  this  film  is  prohibited 
In  lieu  of  transcripts,  however 
enlarged  photocopies  of  selected

research. 


A  Note  on  the  Sources 

The  pages  which  were  microfilmed  for  this  collection  are 
in  generally  good  condition  in  the  original.  There  are 
some  pages,  however,  which  due  to  age  are  lighter  than 
normal.  Additionally,  because  some  volumes  are  very 
large  and  have  been  bound  tightly  and  cannot  be  un¬ 
bound,  there  are  intermittent  occurrences  of  slight  dis¬ 
tortion  of  the  edges  of  a  small  percentage  of  the  pages. 
We  have  made  every  technical  effort  to  ensure  complete 
legibility  of  each  and  every  page.

Ir  science  is  systematised  knowledge,  art

A  Note  on  the  Sources 


The  pages  which  were  microfilmed  for  this  collection  are 
in  generally  good  condition  in  the  original  There  are 
some  pages,  however,  which  due  to  age  are  lighter  than 
normal.  Additionally,  because  some  volumes  are  very 
large  and  have  been  bound  tightly  and  cannot  be  un¬ 
bound,  there  are  intermittent  occurrences  of  slight  dis- 
tortion  of  the  edges  of  a  small  percentage  of  the  pages. 
We  have  made  every  technical  effort  to  ensure  complete  • 
legibility  of  each  and  every  page.
